[poppler] Extract pdf

[mpsuzuki at hiroshima-u.ac.jp]

Oh, I was not aware of the semantic feature in PDF 1.7
(it tells that the logical structure facility was already
 introduced in PDF 1.3). Thank you for pointing out my
misunderstanding. What is the most popular workflow to
generate such semantically structured PDF?

Regards,
mpsuzuki

HOWEVER, it is optional and therefore many PDF documents do not contain the necessary elements.   And, as pointed out, without the presence of such elements already in the PDF - the best you can do is GUESS.
